Dr. Simon invests $80,000 in a piece of land that is expected to increase in value by 14 percent |
per year for the next five years. She will then take the proceeds and provide herself with a 10-year |
annuity. Assuming a 14 percent interest rate for the annuity, how much will this annuity be? PLEASE show all step by step calculations. Thanks. |
This question applies 2 concepts of time value of money - 1 is a basic time value of money function and other is PV of an annuity concept.
Basic time value of money function says: FV = PV * (1 + r)n
Now, applying this, for the land value of Dr Simon
FV = $80,000 * (1 + 14%)5
FV = 80,000 * 1.9254
FV = $154,033.17
Now, this amount would be used to purchase a 10 Year annuity with 14% rate.
PV of an annuity is mathematically represented as:
154,033.17 = P * 0.7303/0.14
P = $29,530.24 ---> Answer
